wednesday

austin's surgery was early this morning. we were on our way home by 9:00 a.m. we ran some errands and then came back to the casa to catch up on some of that sleep we missed by getting up at 4:30 a.m. to make the 5:30 a.m. check in time.

then, it was time for yet more stripe removal. the good news is, i got a lot done. the bad news, it's still not done. but the end is in sight at this point and help is on the way via our good friend, david. he's the one that rescued me from butchering my cabinet doors.

the rv looks better already. austin referred to the stars and stripes motif as "70's game show". and he's right, it did look like that. with the majority gone, it is beginning to look like a regular rv. we will "blend in".

i'm tired, and looking forward to making even more progress tomorrow. dare i say. . .complete it tomorrow. nah, probably not.

i would really like to get the countertops, kitchen and bath, replaced with corian. i think the total countertop area is something like 4 feet, so it shouldn't be too expensive. ah, that's where the "no job" comes in. . .

oh well. more later.
